Pry vatri

Sirily u sumerku pivnochi shatra,
Zastyh, mov u chornomu bezrusi, lis,
Lysh yasnym prominnyam iskrylasya vatra
I sypala zoryam pryvit.

Nad vatroyu postati yuni, hlop’yachi,
Zasluhani v zoloto sliv, shcho lylys,
Pro slavu mynulu, pro mriyi haryachi,
Pro volju, shcho pryide kolys.

Zasluhalys kedry gorganskoyi nochi,
I homin ishov po dolynah, verhah,
Horily zavzyattyam yunackiyi ochi,
I syla rodylas v sercyah.

Pohaslo bahattya, horily shche mriyi,
Kinchyla svii let zavorozena nich,
Daleko na shodi bahrily obriyi,
Voskreslii zirnyci ustrich.

I syla rodylas v sercyah.
